Longmont High School - Trojan Yearbook (Longmont, CO)

FOREWORD HARDSHIP, toil, and sorrow have characterized the past school year, 1944-45. Many times we have received news of friends or loved ones who have valiantly given up their lives on some distant field of battle. While those brave men have been fighting and making history, we on the home front have also been doing our part as best we could by participating in every possible war-aiding activity. Now, as the time of graduation arrives, the seniors have chosen their motto, Launched, to Anchor Where ? Already some of our classmates have launched into a great sea of unknown risks and perils. Soon after commencement, many more will march off to answer the call of some branch of the armed forces. A great number of the girls will soon be launching into some type of war work. , We, the annual staff, solemnly hope that as the stu- dents march out and become separated in life, this yearbook will arouse pleasant memories and bring back thoughts of the ones they love. If it does, then the time spent in pre- paring this annual will not have been in vain. Albert Johnston, Editor.

Ella es una professora muy buena, say the members of her Spanish classes. We'll get Miss Malleis to help us, junior high boys and girls tell each other. She has cooperated one hundred per cent, says the Annual Staff. Whether the project is planning a Spanish Club banquet, bundling and weighing scrap paper, guiding the Junior High through a magazine sale, or arranging an assembly program, Ida Malleis is a capable and friendly Trojan, one who will always be remembered by graduates of L. H. S. DEDICATION To Ida Malleis and Albert Palmer in recognition of their service and loyalty we dedicate this 1945 Trojan Aside from the portrait here, we, the students of L. H. S. have numerous mental pictures of Albert Palmer. No doubt in future years we will recall his jovial smile as he rode down Main street on his bike or drove out with a truckful of students to scour the community for scrap. We will remember, too, how sternly he towered above a detention-hall group and later discussed the Dumbarton Oaks Conference with those who lingered beyond the hour! Perhaps in the final analysis of values, students of L. H. S. will remember from Albert Palmer's teaching that with the privileges of life in a free land go the tre- mendous responsibility of good citizenship. What more can be said in praise of any instructor?
